Many people call Tarangire National Park the “elephant capital of Tanzania.” On your first day there, you’ll see huge herds of animals moving freely around the park, among the ancient baobab trees that look like old guardians. With Kiwoito Africa Safaris, you’ll get used to the rhythm of safari life. Our experienced guides will take you on game drives by the Tarangire River in the morning and afternoon. The river is the park’s lifeblood and draws animals all year long, but especially during the dry season from June to October when there isn’t as much water in other parts of the park.
You will definitely see elephants, giraffes bending over the acacia leaves, lions lying in the shade, and maybe even leopards hiding in the trees. One important thing to remember is that the park helps protect elephants. It has more than 3,000 of these gentle animals, and it’s a great place to see how a family works and how anti-poaching campaigns keep these beautiful animals safe. You will go to Marera Valley Lodge to spend the night when the sun goes down and the sky turns orange and pink.

On the second day, you will go deeper into the bush to the Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that covers almost 15,000 square kilometers of endless grasslands. It is home to one of the most amazing sights in the world: the Great Migration of more than two million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles. You might also see the river cross during the season when dangerous animals like crocodiles and big cats are waiting to attack. Or you could just watch the cheetahs that live there all year round run across the plains looking for food.
Your safari with Kiwoito Africa Safaris will also include visits to some of the most famous tourist spots. Our guides will show you small signs of animal life, like fresh footprints or the sounds of birds that signal the presence of herds. Another piece of advice is to always have your camera with you when you’re on the road. You never know when you’ll see something like a pride of lions teaching their young how to hunt, which is a very raw example of the circle of life in the Serengeti. You will get to Zuri Camps in the Nyaruswiga Valley of the central Serengeti by evening. It is a small tented camp in a beautiful setting with hills and access to great game-viewing opportunities. The luxurious tents here have en-suite bathrooms and small verandas, making them a comfortable place to stay. Dining under the stars might include stories about local Maasai customs, which adds a cultural element to your stay.

The third day will keep you in the Serengeti and you will be able to explore its different ecosystems including the acacia-dotted savannas and rocky kopjes which can be used to view hyenas, buffalo, and rhinos. With Kiwoito Africa Safaris, this day is about flexibility; maybe begin with an early morning game drive when the animals are most active, capturing the golden light as it shines on herds as they graze in tranquility. The tips by our guides might also have the answers to how climate changes impact the migration patterns and the need to encourage environmentally-friendly tourism to maintain such a delicate balance.
You may also be lucky to spot a rare animal, such as a serval cat treading in the grass or flocks of colorful birds, and be reminded of the unbelievable biodiversity of the park with more than 500 types of birds. Afternoons can be spent on leisurely bush walks or on a tour of local research stations, where you hear about current work to track the population of big cats. You’re going back to Zuri Camps at night, and you’ll love the small camp with only a few tents that makes you feel calm. The camp also has solar-powered hot showers that are good for the environment.

On the fourth and final day, you will explore the Ngorongoro Crater, a huge volcano caldera that practically acts as a natural fenced-in zoo, with an abundance of wildlife in one of the highest concentrations on Earth. As you plunge down the sheer side walls into this 600-meter-deep bowl, you will be astounded by this miniature: black rhinos in the open, flamingos in the soda lakes and hippo in the pools, all framed by lush forests and arid plains. Kiwoito Africa Safaris will organize a picnic lunch in this viewing environment to allow you to take time to appreciate the special geology of the crater that took millions of years to develop and its suitability as a habitat to endangered species. The interesting fact is that the crater has a self-contained ecosystem that allows predators and prey to be close to an eye view, without having to drive miles to see them. At the end of the day, you will climb up to leave, possibly with a last glimpse behind this marvel, your memories imbued with why a Tanzania safari with us is unique in its richness and integrity.
